Job description
Engineering Full-Time Cincinnati, OH (or Remote)
Cloud providers fail, and when they do, billions in SLA credits go unclaimed because the claims process is opaque and manual. Next Signal monitors major cloud vendors, detects disruptions in real time, and automatically manages the claims process so customers recover what they're owed without adding operational overhead.
We're a small, technical team building something genuinely new. This is the kind of company you'll want to have been at from the start.
The Role
You'll build the systems that watch the clouds: network telemetry pipelines, outage detection logic, and the evidence collection infrastructure that wins our customers their money back. You'll own significant surface area from day one and work directly with the founding team.
What This Role Is Not
This role is not for someone who prefers clearly defined playbooks or narrow, predictable responsibilities. It's not for engineers who would rather maintain existing systems than build new ones. If stability and incremental change are what you're looking for, this will feel misaligned.
What You'll Work On
Monitoring systems that continuously probe AWS, GCP, and Azure to detect degradation before customers notice
Telemetry pipelines capturing latency, packet loss, DNS resolution, and availability signals across regions
Outage detection logic that turns raw signals into timestamped, evidence-backed incident records
Cloud networking infrastructure using VPCs, Transit Gateways, routing, and related primitives
Infrastructure as Code across the platform
How We Work
Ship end-to-end features with guidance; own them over time
Write AI-native; 80%+ of code is written with AI assistance and we expect fluency with these tools
Optimize for speed, avoid over-engineering, and stay honest about tradeoffs
Work in a 0-to-1 codebase where the decisions you make today will matter for years
What You Bring
3+ years in cloud infrastructure, network engineering, or a related discipline
Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider; multi-cloud exposure is a plus
Working knowledge of cloud networking: VPCs, subnets, routing, load balancers, DNS, VPN/Direct Connect
Ability to write production-grade code (Go, Python, or similar)
Comfort working with APIs at scale: polling, event-driven patterns, rate limiting, reliability
Ability to take loosely defined problems and drive toward a working solution without a spec
Experience scaling and designing distributed systems
Obsessive attention to the details others skip, treating architecture as the user experience because our users are developers
An ego in check: a bias for shipping great software over winning arguments, measuring yourself by impact and winning or losing as a team
Resilience and adaptability to build from scratch, seeing an undefined roadmap as a blank canvas rather than a roadblock
Bonus
3+ years of experience building monitoring, telemetry, or observability systems
Startup or 0-to-1 experience
Compensation
Competitive salary and meaningful equity
Remote-friendly with team offsites
Small, trusting team of senior + staff engineers
Default async with minimal bureaucracy
We'd love to hear how you think about building systems that watch the clouds.
